Dracula forehead after Botox. What can I do?

Question

I did botox 10 days ago and tdy i noticed my forehead like dracula This is not my first time please help what can i do?

Hello and thank you for your question.  If by "dracula forehead" you mean that your eyebrows look peaked and are  accentuated when raising them, then yes, this can be corrected.  If the Botox was injected high up and/or placed mostly in the center of the forehead, this can create that peaked-brow or over-arched look.  Have your injector add a couple more units at the arch of the brows (but closer to the hairline as to not drop the brows or make them heavy). Hope this is helpful and best of luck.

Hello, and thank you for your question. 
You can either choose to wait since sometimes the various groups of muscles in the forehead, eye and glabella area may balance out or you may go for additional Botox to correct the eyebrows.

Stay well,

Hello and thanks for your question. Go back to your injector and this problem should be easily corrected. If your brows are peaking (upside down "V" shape), an average of 2 units should solve the problem. This is a common adjustment when the forehead is under-treated. As undesirable as this effect is, it is actually preferred to an over-treated forehead, when the brows droop and the eyes look tired. This result often lasts for a couple of months, while the "Spock"/"Joker"/"Dracula" brows can be corrected immediately. Don't live with it! Hope this helps.

This can be corrected with a small amount of Botox to the lateral forehead where the most peaked portion of the eyebrow occurs.  Follow up with your injector within the next several days.

Picture would be helpful, but it sounds like your eyebrows are too arched. This can be corrected with extra Botox, follow up with your injector to evaluate how much and where to inject.

Martie Gidon, MD, FRCPC, FAAD · Answer

You require a tiny amount of Botox for your forehead to make it look natural again.  It is always a good idea to see your Botox effect about 10 to 12 days after treatment and then adjust if necessary.

Hello,
I am not sure what "Dracula forehead" means. It would be helpful if you could post a picture of what your forehead looks like after treatment for more appropriate feedback.
